Oleoresin capsicum (OC) is an oily extract of pepper plants of the genus "Capsicum." ... It is used as a spice in salsa, chili, curries, and hot sauces; as a pharmacologic agent in topical anesthetic and analgesic creams; and as the principal active ingredient in OC spray, or "pepper spray," used by police and others as an antipersonnel agent. OC extract consists of a complex mixture of fat soluble phenols known as capsaicinoids; capsaicin (trans-8-methyl-N-vanillyl-6-nonenamide) and dihydrocapsaicin, the most potent homologues, make up 80-90% of the total. Capsaicinoid content determines the "hotness" of the extract. 3, record 5, English, - Capsicum%20oleoresin

Oleoresin Capsicum. In the early 1980’s Zarc International, Inc. introduced a proprietary "capsicum pepper technology" to be used as a safe and effective non-lethal weapon by military and law enforcement. "Capsicums" are chili peppers which occur in many varieties that range from mild to hot. Capsicum encompasses twenty species and some 300 different varieties of pepper plants. "Oleoresin" is the industrial extraction of the dried ripe fruits of capsicums and contains a complex mixture of highly potent organic compounds. 9, record 5, English, - Capsicum%20oleoresin

L'oléorésine de «Capsicum» est un mélange huileux de plus de 100 composés obtenu par l'extraction des fruits mûrs et séchés de piments forts issus des plantes du genre «Capsicum» (habituellement les espèces suivantes : «Capsicum annuum» et «Capsicum frutescens»). La capsaïcine est le principal constituant isolé de l'oléorésine de «Capsicum», la capsaïcine représente environ 70 % de la totalité du mélange suivi par la dihydrocapsaïcine (~20 %), la norhydrocapsaïcine (~ 7 %), l'homocapsaïcine (~ 1 %) et la monodihydrocapsaïcine (~ 1 %). La capsaïcine est particulièrement reconnue pour ses propriétés irritantes. De plus, dépendamment de la variété de piments forts, l'oléorésine de «Capsicum» contiendra de 0,001 à 1,0 % de capsaïcinoïdes (masse sèche). Ainsi, une exposition à un aérosol d'oléorésine de «Capsicum» produira chez les individus de l'irritation, une sensation de brûlure et de la douleur aux yeux, aux voies respiratoires et sur la peau non protégée. 8, record 5, French, - ol%C3%A9or%C3%A9sine%20de%20Capsicum

La récente augmentation des affrontements violents avec la police accompagnée par les limites imposées par les tribunaux sur l'utilisation des armes mortelles ont abouti à une demande presque universelle pour une arme alternative non mortelle (less-than-lethal) (LTL), sans danger en même temps qu'efficace. [...] L'Oléorésine Capsicum (OC) a suscité un intérêt considérable et est ainsi devenue un choix LTL populaire auprès de nombreuses agences des forces de l'ordre.

The most efficient method of verifying the integrity of a new existing sewer line is through low pressure air testing. To test a line to meet acceptance standards, the line is plugged at both manholes using the isolator Leak Locator Pluggs. The line is then pressurized using the isolator Air Test Panel to control both the plug inflation and test section pressures. To pass the acceptance test, the sewer must retain a specified air pressure for a specific period of time. Failure to hold the pressure indicates that a leak is present. 2, record 8, English, - air%20test
